Candy From the Prison...Sure, Why Not?

Halloween…and posted before December, thank you very much!!

I learned my lesson last year. NO making Halloween costumes this year. NO WAY, NO HOW…NOPE. Not happening.

We made our decisions early, and I had them shipped. If only I were so efficient in my blogging.

Bubba decided he wanted to be a BYU football player, luckily we ordered early since there was a glich in the arrival of his costume. He was so excited to open the box the day it came. We opened it up, and there was a big red jersey in there. “NOT UTAH!” Were the first words out of his mouth. Upon further investigation we realized they had sent us a Wisconsin Badgers uniform. That didn’t make him any happier. Luckily we had enough time to get the appropriate uniform sent.

Pie after much deliberation decided she wanted to be Cleopatra. She was VERY excited because she thought this would be very different, and there would not be a lot of Cleopatras. She is all about being different. Sadly Cleopatra was hugely popular this year. When we arrived at Trunk-or-Treat the first costume she saw when we walked in was exactly like hers. She wanted to go home. I hope no other girls have the same dress as her on Prom night, she will not handle it well. Finally, once she calmed down we had a great time with church friends.



Since Halloween landed on a Monday this year we had two nights of candy. We went to Trunk-or-Treat on Saturday, and on Monday we went to the Territorial Prison to trick-or-treat. It was awesome. The kids loved it. Cool Dad loved it. The weather was amazing, and the organizations that decorated cells did a great job. We will definitely be going back next year.



We had a great Halloween. Even though nobody knew Bubba’s football team, and he was kind of disappointed, he was still glad he was a BYU football player.
